Benefits of technology

[0014]According to the rack mount server system and the control method thereof of the present invention, since the system has a heat exchanger and an evaporator, which operate differently from each other in accordance with a threshold temperature: no damage is given to computation equipment even if a disorder occurs in a cooling device; it is easy to maintain; power consumption is minimized; the structure is simple; and an efficient cooling can be done. In addition, the capac...

Problems solved by technology

However, the cooling structure, in case of a disorder in the cooling device, has many issues such as a malfunction or maloperation of expensive computation equipment and an increase in power consumption.
The conventional c...

Technical Problem

[0005]The present invention aims to provide a rack mount server system, which has no damage to computation equipment even if a disorder occurs in a cooling device, which is easy to maintain, and minimize power consumption, which has a simple structure, and that performs an efficient cooling, and a control method thereof.

Solution to Problem

[0006]To achieve this purpose, the rack mount server system of the present invention comprises: a rack housing; and a cooling zone which is placed in the rack housing, which stores a server, and which is forcibly cooled. Here, the rack housing comprises: a heat exchanger; an evaporator; and a cooling structure which operates one or more of the heat exchanger and the evaporator in order to cool the cooling zone.

[0007]In the server system of the present invention, the heat exchanger and the evaporator are successively placed and may be placed on one or more places of the top, the bottom, and a side surface of the cooling zone. The he...

Abstract

Provided are a rack mount server system, which has no damage to computation equipment even if a disorder occurs in a cooling device, which is easy to maintain, minimize power consumption, which has a simple structure, and which performs an efficient cooling, and a control method thereof. The system comprises: a rack housing; and a cooling zone which is placed in the rack housing, which stores a server, and which is forcibly cooled. The rack housing comprises a heat exchanger and an evaporator, which cool the cooling zone. The cooling methods of the cooling structure may be different in accordance with the internal temperature of the cooling zone and the external temperature of the cooling zone.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a rack mount server system and a control method thereof, and more specifically, to a server system, which has a heat exchanger and an evaporator installed on a rack and which cools a server inside the rack by air circulation, and a control method thereof.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Recently, a rack mount method is the major trend in system composition, storage, and installation of information processing devices such as a server. The rack mount method is to mount devices with various functions on a rack, which fits a specific norm, by multiple layers. The system is able to freely select and place each device, to have excellent flexibility and expandability in system composition, and to reduce the area occupied by the whole system. Meanwhile, in relation to servers, a 19-inch rack specified by the International Electrical Commission (IEC) norm and the Electrical Industries Association (EIA) norm is the major trend. The 19-inch rack is spec...
